No offense to commons but if one can make ones project move up the list on sourceforge, I would venture to guess they'd get far more exposure then as a new package under commons. There is a hump to travel up on sourceforge, but once you're over it your project gets in this reinforcing loop that causes it to stay on the front page. Heck, after POI moved to jakarta it still managed to stay in the 96 percentile on Sourceforge and we've not released in like a month or so. Just my opinion. One does have to market an opensource project...there is no getting around it. On sourceforge that means you have to get enough going to get in the top 50. (both by getting traffic for the site and by committing enough to help raise the activity rating). If you do that the rest will follow (in my experience). Being in Commons won't help you in this respect as much as being front page on sourceforge I'd venture to guess. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
